Insights into star formation and dispersal from the synchronization of stellar clocks
Age is one of the most fundamental parameters of a star, yet it is one of the hardest to
determine as it requires modelling various aspects of stellar formation and evolution. When …

Stellar populations in STARFORGE: the origin and evolution of star clusters and associations
Most stars form in highly clustered environments within molecular clouds, but eventually
disperse into the distributed stellar field population. Exactly how the stellar distribution …
